Episode 4

This episode was originally done in 2004. This one is but a remake, in 2014. Oh how time flies.

Junior was really cute, I loved him. Though the story and his situations were a bit funny for most, it was actually a sad one. At some point but not absolute, Junior represented some of the pains and troubles of a kid with disability—”fighting” everyday to fit and be normal in the world’s standards. In the end, he became a victim of an accident that could have been avoided if given more attention. This is just one of the many Garapitik stories that laughed out loud, yet mixed some dark criticism as it went. Probably one of my favorite, I might consider.

As years passed, Junior continued haunting me. Today is the day I will share to world that he’s fine and he’ll be back.
